abstract = {The paper empirically explores the international linkages between gender inequality and
trade flows of a sample of 92 developed and developing countries. The focus is on
comparative advantage in labour-intensive manufactured goods. The results indicate that
gender wage inequality is positively associated with comparative advantage in labourintensive
goods, that is, countries with a larger gender wage gap have higher exports of
these goods. Also, gender inequality in labour force activity rates and educational
attainment rates are negatively linked with comparative advantage in labour-intensive
commodities.},
